NEW GLARUS — Resurfacing work begins Tuesday, June 1, on nearly 4 miles of Wis. 69, from north of New Glarus to Belleville, in southern Dane County.
Wis. 69, from south of Wis. 92 to Peerless Road, will be closed and detoured from Tuesday, June 1 through Friday, July 2, for culvert pipe replacements. A signed detour will follow Wis. 39, Wis. 78 and U.S. 18/151. Access will be maintained to local residences within the work zone.
During the majority of construction, Wis. 69 will remain open to traffic with lane closures and flagging operations. Motorists are advised to slow down and be alert for crews and equipment near the travel lanes.
The prime contractor for the $2.1 million project is Payne and Dolan, Inc. Walbec Group based out of Waukesha. The project is scheduled to be completed in late August 2021 (weather-permitting).
